Zu An couldn't help but glance at Yun Yuqing on the other side. Seeing that she was also secretly looking at him, he couldn't help but smile and wink at her quietly.
Yun Yuqing blushed and quickly turned her face away.
She was physically and mentally exhausted today and didn't really want to come out. But thinking that this might be the last time she saw Zu'an, she still came out as if possessed.
The exchange of glances between the two did not escape the eyes of the King of Wu, who was even more furious.
Zhao Yan's anger level increased by 1024!
However, with everyone watching, he couldn't make a scene, so he could only pretend nothing had happened and continue exchanging pleasantries with Prince Liang, Liu Yao, and the others.
After leaving the city, the two sides would eventually part ways.
As Zu'an's carriage passed by, Yun Yuqing transmitted her voice, "Take care on your journey!"
Sensing the sadness and parting in her voice, Zu An laughed heartily: "Ji Beicheng is a great place. Not only is the scenery beautiful, but the people are also beautiful. I will definitely come back next time, hahaha."
Yun Yuqing blushed slightly, knowing that he was saying it on purpose for her to hear, to remind her of their agreement. However, she really couldn't think of any chance of survival for Zu'an on this trip.
The people around him were baffled, thinking, "You're just a prisoner passing through, what's there to be nostalgic about and come back to?"
Only the King of Wu understood the meaning behind his words. In an instant, his handsome face turned ugly, and the murderous intent in his eyes intensified.
The King of Wu's anger level has increased by 444!
Huang Huihong closed the car door for him irritably: "Shut your beak, you're a wanted criminal and you still want to come back."
The people around him burst into laughter, clearly laughing at his overestimation of his abilities.
Zuan didn't care. "You bunch of scum would never understand my happiness."
"Is there something between you and the princess?" Zheng Dan traced lines on the table with her finger. She had just been next to Zu An and noticed the exchange between the two.
Zuan smiled slightly and wrote on the table, "That's right, she couldn't resist my handsome face and completely fell for my charm."
Zheng Dan rolled her eyes: "..."
I don't believe you at all. The princess is of such a noble status, she's practically a fairy, why would she be interested in you?
It's hard to say if it took longer, but they only stayed in the Prince's mansion for two days and were kept in a separate courtyard the whole time. They couldn't even see the Princess Consort, so how could they possibly have any interaction?
Thinking about it this way, she breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that she had really been overthinking things.
At this moment, Sang Hong, who was in the prison cart behind, was also full of doubt. He felt that he must have forgotten something, but no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what he had forgotten.
Only Sang Qian gazed longingly at the woman in the white fox fur coat in the distance, marveling at how such a perfect woman could exist in the world, while also feeling immense envy for the King of Wu.
Each of them had their own thoughts and headed north. One day, they arrived at a small town. It was getting dark, so King Liang ordered them to camp there.
The town was small, with only one inn, which Liang Wang's men quickly booked entirely. Of course, most of the imperial guards could only be stationed on the outskirts of the town.
Because of the shortage of rooms, Zu'an naturally didn't have the chance to have a room by himself and had to share a room with Sang Qian and his son.
Sharing the same room, Sang Qian looked at Zu An with the intense hatred that often ensnares enemies.
Seeing him about to pounce, Zu'an said with dissatisfaction, "Isn't this a bit too ungrateful?"
"I repay kindness with enmity?" Sang Qian laughed in anger, wondering where this guy got the nerve to say such a thing. What kindness did he have to repay?
Anger from Sang Qian +666!
"Let's not talk about saving you before. Let's talk about now. If it weren't for me, you would still be living in the prison van down there. With rooms so scarce, would you even be able to stay in a guest room?" Zuan snorted.
Sang Qian's breath hitched; what this guy said was true.
They were all supposed to stay in the prison cart, but Zu'an kept complaining that if he was uncomfortable there, he would forget some of the contents of the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra" when he arrived in front of the emperor, and would shift the blame to the people who accompanied him, saying that they deliberately targeted him because they didn't want the emperor to live forever.
Those old foxes like King Liang wouldn't dare take on this responsibility, and besides, having one more room wouldn't be a big deal.
So he was given a room to stay in along the way. Of course, considering that it would not sound good if word got out that a dignified master was being manipulated by a local ruffian, the King of Liang simply let the other criminals stay in the room as well. After all, Sang Hong and the others were once high-ranking officials of the court, so as to avoid the people of the Censorate talking about them in the future.
It was fine when there were plenty of rooms, but today the inn doesn't have many rooms, so the three of them have to squeeze into one room.
"That's more like it. People should be grateful and repay kindness. Otherwise, if you piss me off, I'll just move into Miss Zheng's room next door and see what you do then." Zu An snorted.
As a woman, Zheng Dan naturally couldn't possibly share a room with other people to sleep at night.
Since Sang Hong had not yet been formally convicted, Liang Wang, Liu Yao, and others were still concerned about the impact on public appearances.
"You've gone too far!" Sang Qian was almost going crazy, roaring as he charged at the other party.
Anger from Sang Qian: +999!
Because his vital energy was locked, his movements were similar to those of an ordinary person, and Zuan easily dodged him.
As he dodged, he shouted, "Murder! Murder! I demand a room change!"
"What's all the noise about!" Huang Huihong glared at the two of them as he entered. "If you keep making noise, you'll both go sleep in the prison van outside."
Zuan chuckled: "It's not that I want to make a scene, but this guy treats me like an enemy. He'll try to hit or kill me whenever he sees me. I don't feel safe here, so I'm asking to move to Miss Zheng's room next door. I'm quite familiar with her, so I'm sure he won't mind."
